A king's story

Once upon a time
There was a king..and in his palace was all his treasures...it was so packed that he couldn't fit in anything anymore.
Then one night, when the stars were hidden and the moon was gone..
A servant girl knocks at the palace's gate.
She was looking for a place to lay her head for the night
The king was awake by her and he likes what he saw..
Without hesitation, he invited her in and treated her with such splendor that even a princess does not possess.
He shared his treasures and everything he has with her..he even promise her the inheritance of his palace.
A place where she can live forever
and to build a kingdom together
The servant girl was too overwelmed and felt so blessed..
She never thought that a king like him would fall for a girl like her
One night, the king wore his best and asked the servant girl out for a date with him.
The servant girl accepted his invitation.
They sat on the king's red coach and off they went to a grand ball only fit for the royalties.
There they met with other kings, queens, princes and princesses..all dressed in their very best!!
Servant girl was as though entered into a different dimension..a world which she never thought existed.
The king was good to the servant girl..so gentle and so charming..that it finally melts her heart.
She was living in a fairy tale where dreams were coming true..
After the ball, the king brought the servant girl to a place where they enjoyed the finest tea in the whole of dreamland...sipping on their tea, listening to the playing of classical music from live performers..their love for each other grew.
But happy endings does not come so easily..
As days passed..
With the palace was full of treasures that the king loves..there was no space for the girl to stay..
Near that time, there was a war happening soon..a war which the king has to put on his best sword and toughest shield..his mighty armour and his fighting shoes..
Day and night..he was spending time sharping his sword, training his horse and practicing his skill..
Servant girl was left alone.
So one fine night, she walked to the place where the king trains..and she told him that she misses him and hope that he'll spend more time with her.
The king was frustrated..he remain silent and asked the servant girl to go back to the palace immediately.
Then the king began to have mixed and confusing feelings about the servant girl...
Wondering...why did he invited her to stay in his palace when there was no room at all??
Doesn't she know that the battle is important to him??
Servant girl became a burden to the king.
Finally..
The king made up his mind and went back to the palace..
He walks into the servant girl's room and asked the servant girl to leave and go their
separate ways..
He claims that the servant girl deceived him
As though the servant girl was some witch or gypsy..casting spells on him..
Tears was rolling down the servant girl's cheeks but the king show no pity
He was firm and knew what he wanted for himself..
The only thing the servant girl could do is to leave and never look back.
In her mind, she'll always remember the rain and the tears that mark the end of her fairy tale story..
And she realised that happy ending is hard to find..
Later on,
The king fought a good battle and won!!
Servant girl was far aside, celebrating his victory in her heart..
Wishing all the best for the king and hope that one day he'll be able to clear up his treasures and prepare a fine room for his queen.
~the end~
